Temat: [Exim] SMTP AUTH failure for apple's mail.app
Just wondering if anyone has found a work around for apple's mail.app(the
default mail client) problem.
Seems like it doesn't do authentication properly.

I get 004-05-31 20:25:09 plain authenticator failed 535 Incorrect
authentication data.

http://www.talkaboutmac.com/group/comp.sys.mac.comm/messages/333971.html


my exim.conf file has the following:

begin authenticators

plain:
    driver = plaintext
    public_name = PLAIN
    server_condition = "${perl{smtpauth}}"
    server_set_id = $2


login:
    driver = plaintext
    public_name = LOGIN
    server_prompts = "Username:: : Password::"
    server_condition = "${perl{smtpauth}}"
    server_set_id = $1


Is there anyway to force this client to use AUTH LOGIN instead of AUTH
PLAIN?

Does anyone know of a fix to this problem. Granted the percentage of OSX
users out there is pretty small but I'm thinking there must be a fix to
something as serious as this.
